[hometext] => How we hide our insecurities
[bodytext] => Life should be simpler as we age Take each day as another page In the book of life that we all read Knowing the basics in life that we need. Our bodies are fed by the food that we eat Sometimes sour and sometimes sweet, The taste we choose will not last long, Try something different, the taste will be gone. We nurture our bodies and treat them well Trying to raise the heavy dumbell Stretching and lifting and going a mile Feeling all the time it is worthwhile. Go out shopping for something to wear, Have something different done to your hair, Go to the Spa, be pampered for the day Get on the scales to see what you weigh. Put on some make-up, spray on perfume Feel like a rose about to bloom. What is this thing lurking in your soul Making you realize you have no control. Look in the mirror but a stranger is there, Why does that face wear an empty stare? Outside things look as they really should But inside the feelings are not so good. Why are you so lonely and insecure, Why do you never feel happy and sure That you are loved whatever you do, That you have someone faithful and true? The outside is so much easier to repair Get your nails done, buy something to wear. Are your efforts to feel good worthwhile? No one will guess. just put on a smile.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
